Lanier was riding east on Heim Road about 9:20 p.m. Saturday when an oncoming car tried to turn left onto Sylvan Drive, said Mount Dora police Lt. David Taylor. The car hit the side of the bike and knocked Lanier onto the sidewalk.

The bike had no lights, but the area was well lit with streetlights, Taylor said.

The driver of the car was Steve Vaughn, 61, of 1324 Sylvan Drive, Mount Dora, Taylor said. An investigation is under way, Taylor said.
